The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport, what recent discussions she has had with Formula One bodies on further support for Formula One in the UK.

Answered by Stephanie Peacock

Formula One is a British success story and this government is proud to champion and support the sport. My Department frequently engages with Formula One and wider stakeholders across the motorsport industry to champion the sport and identify shared opportunities including recently at the Motorsport UK Night of Champions and at the iconic British Grand Prix in July.

The Government recognises manufacturing, engineering and other STEM advances generated in our domestic motorsport sector are a vibrant part of regional growth in Motorsport Valley and beyond.
